Labour market
The study of the employment outcomes of graduates, coordinated by AQU Catalunya, is the result of the interest of public and private Catalan universities, affiliated centres and higher arts education centres in Catalonia in obtaining data and references on the quality of their students' employment following graduation.
This study, which has been carried out every three years since 2001, covers the employment rate, the quality of employment and the skills developed. It is one of the most representative and important studies in Europe in this field.
The 8th edition of the study
This edition will look at more than 1,500 degree programmes and some 40,000 people are expected to be surveyed: 23,000 bachelor's degree and higher arts education graduates, 15,000 master's degree graduates and 2,500 doctoral degree graduates. This figure represents approximately half of the reference population (bachelor's degree graduates from the 2018-2019 and 2019-2020 academic years, except for Medicine, in which case it is the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 graduating class, and higher arts education, master's degree and doctoral degree graduates from the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 academic years).
From November to December 2022, the first phase of fieldwork will be carried out by email. Subsequently, between 16 January and April 2023, the remaining individuals will be contacted by telephone.
